- Abstract
The following paper aims to analyze the involuntary urban displacements performed by evicted slum dwellers in Rio de Janeiro. The local population of a slum under a removal process is prompt to move away due to resettlements and the search for a new home and, while doing this, uses its own perceptions about the produced space, at the same time as developing manners and speeches that communicate the moral and normative framework about these displacements. The downtown and outskirts concepts emerge from these speeches starting on the movements performed in the city, and are made through a cognitive pattern that hierarchize these concepts, so downtown becomes a more enriched region in comparison to the outskirts. Considering the perspective of the right to the city, offered specially by Henri Lefebvre, but willing to find authors who explore the production of space considering the aforementioned duality. This article offers a theoretical, based on bibliographic revision, and empirical, based on data produced during the ethnographic field research in the Metrô-Mangueira slum on the north area of Rio de Janeiro, analysis. The analysis on these movements will also be contextualized on the urban policy implement on Rio de Janeiro and this policy's impact on the city housing offer. Besides that, we also aim to address the ways of practicing urban anthropology, culminating to an epistemological proposal that meets the demand pertinent to the comprehension of the cities and the movements that compose them.
